NEYLAND will play host to a team of French guests later this month.

As part of the town's twinning partnership, visitors from Sanguinet will be staying in the town between Thursday, September 29, and Tuesday, October 4.

The European guests are members of the Biscarosse Olympique Table de Tennis club, which is nearby Sanguinet .

A wide variety of events have been arranged for their stay, including a musical evening on Saturday, October 1, at St Clements Church Hall at 7pm.

French counterparts on the Sanguinet Twinning Committee will also be visiting on Friday, October 7, and Saturday, October 8.

An informal 'meet and greet' will take place on Saturday, October 8, from 11.30am till 2.30pm at The Yacht Club, the Promenade.

Local organisations, groups, schools, clubs and members of the public wishing to get involved in the twinning calendar are invited to come along and find out more, or just come to chat to the visitors.

It is hoped the meeting will help forge bonds between groups in the town, with a view to exchanging ideas, contacts and visits.

Refreshments will be available.
